As the French Leader I'm applying to Education Global Committee for sharing the Europe/French vision and helping to spread OWASP Education. I'm currently doing some teaching in French University about AppSec and to some company.

I think I could help to translate some materials in French, and spread it to the French community.

Sébastien has been very active on the French area to promote Web Application Security. I really enjoy having discussion with him about Web Security, Web Application Firewall and Strong Authentication. Sébastien his very motivated and his deep security knowledge are helpful for promoting OWASP.

OWASP user

Very important support on Application Security enhancement: he's able to do awareness with persuasive examples to different people: developers, CIO, marketing or sales people. In addition he's able to train technically with all details how to manage application security vulnerabilities and to increase protection.

So Sebastien Gioria competencies: open minded, technical skills, business oriented, good orator, and availability support with efficiency OWASP objectives.

Sébastien is a "Stallman-Like" evangelist and security open minded guy. Without his great professionalism, the OWASP in France had never seen the day. He's suddenly being available for everyone to share his knowledge, keynotes and application security skills. He was one of the first security auditors to put OWASP entries as references in his reports to CISOs and CSOs.

Sébastien has been a great asset to the SecurityVibes community, making great contributions to our discussions. He also delivered an excellent presentation about OWASP and application security to our audience of CSOs and risk managers
